Guy eats scorpion and bugs! - Wangfujing Snack Street, Beijing, China

here better to start a meal than at the bottom of the food chain? With an open mind and occasionally closed eyes, Time Out samples the best six-legged snacks Beijing has to offer
Of the huge varieties of Chinese cuisine, the part that seems to be the furthest removed from the West's dull meat-and-two-veg diet is the eating of insects. Though people around the world are quite happy to tuck into a pot of honey, most stop short of eating the bee itself -- strange when you consider how plentiful and protein-packed insects can be. Nowadays seen as a novelty act, there are clearly valid reasons why insects have crept and crawled their way onto the menu: Time Out picks its way through the entomological section of the larder.

@TheMzWhopper How do you know it's disgusting? You've never tried it, least you never been @ Asia. Please shut it ;)

Wesley you did a good word (:

- Firstly, it's normal if you find it disgusting but you could at least shut up because nobody is forcing you to eat it. Second, so what if people eat something that you don't consider food? And third, not all Asians eat scorpions so stop bunching us all as a. whole and calling us gross.
